The digital version included 10 songs from the concert, and lasts approximately 45 minutes and was priced at $9.99.[4]

Steve Bartels, President/COO, Island Def Jam Music Group said of the event: "Fans from all over the world can now share the excitement of a live concert, wherever, whenever, and on whatever digital device they chose". For promotional use, one-minute clips of "Obsessed" and "I Want To Know What Love Is" were recorded at the September shows. A trailer was also created for promotional purposes for her Japanese fans.[5] Ten of the songs from the show were released on a digital album in 2014, available on iTunes, called At the Pearl Palms Concert Theatre.[6]
